Traveling for business, I try to see local sights at the same time. I didn't even know this place existed until my girlfriend pointed it out. I wish we had more time to explore the site, but we were fortunate in that the house and other buildings were open. Well worth the visit, especially if you're a history buff

Knowledgeable staff and friendly. Did a self-guided tour due to time and enjoyed looking at the history. Highly recommend the audio tour or tour guide, as there's a ton of information to hear.

Nice exhibits and very interesting film. Very friendly and informative staff. I knew about Appomattox but this place seems to be less famous. The actual building that Sherman and Johnston met is not the original due to a fire (and I couldn't go inside) but it was overall a fun visit.

To easy to just dive by this place, but I'm so glad we stopped. Free guided tour was fantastic

Very interesting new information about the end of the civil war. I had no idea Johnson and Sherman ended up being lifelong friends. The video is a must see to put this place in proper historic perspective. The grounds are small, so this is a quick tour.
